I had a most unique experience that is very earthy in nature and proved to be a substantive approach of learning more about the availability of locally grown produce that garners the consumer many benefits toward health and the environment.

Hello fine UK Dudette,
How are things in the UK? It's very cold here in Milwaukee, but I will be warming up in Puerto Vallarta in mid-March. It's been a while, so I'd just like to start by saying I'd like to shake the tootie of the dog that barked at the cat that chased the mouse across your kitchen floor! ;) Anyway, thought you might like to know that we are #47 on the myspace Americana charts and hopefully climbing. I am currently applying for a patent on the instrument I designed, the Cellocaster, which is a cross between a guitar, cello, and violin. You can hear it featured on my song "Barb's Lullaby." My band Treehouse's album "Blend" is now available at iTunes and all the other major download services.
Thanks for supporting your independent musicians- we really appreciate it! Drop us a line sometime, let us know what's new in your world.
peace,
Paul Kuhn

I'm doing ok, although I do feel a bit like a living dead these days, but it is soon over now and I cannot wait. I'm still getting use to the thought that I wont be able to pop by Grays Inn to see you or meet for a cultural day in Covent Garden with a visit to some gallery or a like. By I would really love to come and visit you soon and glad you asked cos I always enjoy your company very much. Everything is up in the air with the upcoming move etc. but hopefully I would be able to visit over the summer, that would so lovely to see you both incl. pets and all again. xxx
